A variable is a letter representing a number (ex. 2a+8h=26 ..... a=5 & h=2 )

"Solving'' an inequality means finding all of its solutions. A "solution'' of an inequality is a number which when substituted for the variable makes the inequality a true statement.

Here is an example: Consider the inequality <span />

When we substitute 8 for x, the inequality becomes 8-2 > 5. Thus, x=8 is a solution of the inequality

2n-4 < 3n                                        
+4
2n+4-4<3n+4
2n<3n+4

<span> </span>


-3n
2n-3n<4
-n<4
/-1
n>-4

X will represent unknown
2x-4<3x
treat the < sign as a = sign
2x-4=3x
subtract 2x form both sides
-4=x
put the < sign back
-4<x
-4 is less than than x or
x is greater than -4

X+1<br> -<br> and h(x) = 4 - X, what is the value<br> Oil CD<br> Nior<br> wla<br> olo
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

8/5

Step-by-step explanation:

(g\circ h)(-3) means g(h(-3)).

Start with the inside first: h(-3).

h(-3) means use the function called h and replace the x with -3.  The expression that is called h is 4-x.

4-x evaluated at x=-3 gives us 4-(-3)=4+3=7.

So the value for h(-3) is 7, or h(-3)=7.

Now this is what we thus far:

(g\circ h)(-3)=g(h(-3))=g(7).

g(7) means use the function called g and replace x with 7.   The expression that is called g is (x+1)/(x-2).

(x+1)/(x-2) evaluated at x=7 gives us (7+1)/(7-2)=(8)/(5)=8/5.

This is our final answer:

(g\circ h)(-3)=g(h(-3))=g(7)=\frac{8}{5}.
